Effect sodium butyrate on lipid peroxidation, total antioxidant capacity and antioxidant enzyme activity in the liver of goats fed HG vs. LG and HG alone. a MDA. b T- AOC. c Total SOD activity. d GPx activity. e Catalase activity. The results are expressed as the mean ± SEM. Data were analysed by mixed model in SAS (SAS version 9.2, SAS Institute Inc., USA) and are expressed as the mean ± S.E.M. **P < 0.01, * P < 0.05 vs. LG. HG = high grain; LG = low grain; HG + NaB = high grain + sodium butyrate; MDA = malondialdehyde; T-AOC = total antioxidant capacity; TSOD = total superoxide dismutase; GPx = glutathione peroxidase; CAT = catalase
